+<sect>Supported hardware <p>
+
+This driver
+supports a single chipset `mediagx' that should work on the following Cyrix
+CPUs with integrated graphics:
+
+<itemize>
+<item>MediaGX
+<item>MediaGXi
+<item>MediaGXm
+</itemize>
+
+<sect>Features <p>
+<itemize>
+<item>Rather sparse (color depth hardcoded to 8)
+</itemize>
+
+<sect>XF86Config Option <p>
+<descrip>
+<tag>Option "sw_cursor"</tag>
+disable the hardware cursor. (Code not verified yet!)
+<tag>Option "no_accel"</tag>
+completely disables acceleration. Usually not recommended.
+</descrip>
+
+<sect>Bugs and Limitations<p>
+<itemize>
+<item>As a first cut at the new design, known problems are everywhere.
+The console font is corrupted upon exit.  The server seems stable if
+the virtual desktop and resolution size match.  I found 1024x768 usable
+and that's why I released this version.  Geeks can have fun with this
+but NEWBIES should use the 3.3.3.1 release instead!
+<item>On some older chipsets, the driver may trigger an illegal instruction
+just after probing for the ``scratchpad size''.  If this is the case,
+email to <email>hecker@cat.dfrc.nasa.gov</email> with the output of 
+<verb>
+XFree86 -probeonly -verbose
+</verb>
+and this will be fixed.
